Climbers who discovered the body of Mallory on Mount Everest have sent a tissue sample for testing to prove conclusively the remains were those of the British explorer lost in 1924, an expedition official said on Tuesday.
ENGINE RUN-ON, DIESELING -- RO-101. DIESELING, that nasty tendency of an engine to continue to run on, coughing and sputtering, after the ignition is turned off and there is no more spark. Run-on by dieseling is caused by fuel in engine igniting without spark. Possible explanations: a.) Running winter fuel in warm weather.
A diesel engine is started by driving it from some external power source until conditions have been established under which the engine can run by its own power. The simplest starting method is to admit air from a high-pressure sourceâabout 1.7 to nearly 2.4 megapascalsâto each of the cylinders in turn on their normal firing stroke.
